Available puppies.

No, and that's deliberate. Matching is based on temperament observed across six weeks of photo sessions, not coat colour. A very dominant puppy placed with young children is a problem that shows up a year later. We show you the puppy or puppies that fit your household, and you decide from there.

It's a genetic mutation common in herding breeds — collies and shelties included — that increases sensitivity to certain common medications, including high-dose ivermectin and some anti-diarrheal drugs. Both our breeding dogs are tested, and we hand over each puppy's genetic status at pickup so your vet can account for it.

Yes, heavily, twice a year. The double coat needs regular brushing — two to three times a week outside of shedding season. If coat upkeep isn't for you, these two breeds probably aren't the right fit, and we'd rather tell you that before you reserve than after.

No. Every family picks up their puppy at the studio in Sainte-Adèle. It lets us walk you through handling one last time, hand over the full paperwork and the photo album, and see the puppy leave under the right conditions. We never ship through a transporter.

First round of vaccines, full deworming, a microchip registered in your name, a vet exam in the days before pickup, a health record, CKC registration papers, and the complete photo album of every session since birth.

Yes. A two-year guarantee against serious hereditary conditions, provided in writing when you sign the contract, with replacement or refund at your choice. You also receive both parents' health screening results.
